Darenell Jones, 25, falls to his death on Wednesday night while re-enacting an Ultimate Fighting Championship move during a drinking session with his friends. He was celebrating a wedding in the family and watching the UFC fight in his hotel room when he was pushed in to the window just like they had seen on TV.

"It was horseplay, basically," said Sgt. Robert Perez of the Farmington Police Department's detective bureau. "They were hitting each other and pushing each other around."

When the glass broke, Darenell fell through it and on to the sidewalk 20 feet below. He was pronounced dead at the hospital.
